CLEANING AND CARE
boil dry, permanent damage may affect the ceramic glass
surface.
• Do not slide pots and pans across the cooktop surface.
• Cookware with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the
cooktop surface.
• Do not use a dull or nicked blade. Be sure to use a new,
sharp razor scraper.
MICROWAVE DRAWER
INTERIOR
Cleaning is easy because no heat is generated to the interior
surfaces; therefore, there is no baking and setting of spills or
spattering. To clean the interior surfaces, including drawer
sealing surfaces, wipe with a soft damp cloth. DO NOT USE
ABRASIVE OR HARSH CLEANERS OR SCOURING
PADS. For heavier soil, use mild soap; wipe clean with a soft
damp cloth. Do not use any chemical oven cleaners.
MICROWAVE DRAWER GUIDES
Remove the food crumbs from the Microwave Drawer guides.
Wipe with a soft dry cloth in order to keep the Microwave
Drawer opening and closing easily.
WAVEGUIDE COVER
ATTENTION
The waveguide cover (located on the inside
top of the microwave drawer area) is made from mica, so
it requires special care. Keep the waveguide cover clean to
assure good microwave performance. Carefully wipe with
a soft damp cloth any food spatters from the surface of
the cover immediately after they occur. Built-up splashes
may overheat and cause smoke or possibly catch fire. Do
not remove the waveguide cover.
ODOR REMOVAL
Occasionally, a cooking odor may remain in the Microwave
Drawer. To remove, combine 1 cup water, grated peel and
juice of one lemon and several whole cloves in a 2-cup glass
measuring cup. Boil for several minutes using 100% power.
Allow to sit in the Microwave Drawer until cool. Wipe interior
with a soft cloth.
OVEN
CAUTION
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure the
oven is turned off. If not, Touch Stop/Clear.
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
INSIDE OF THE DOOR
You do not need to clean the area inside the gasket by hand
since the area is cleaned during the self-clean cycle.
Do not rub, clean or move the door gasket. Replace gasket
when it is worn or frayed.
The area outside the gasket and the door liner can be cleaned
with a soap-filled steel wool or plastic pad, hot water and
detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.
